- Power estimation in combinational modules is addressed from a probabilistic point of view. The zero-delay hypothesis is considered and under highly correlated input streams, the ...
Abstract— Many asynchronous designs are naturally specified and implemented hierarchically as an interconnection of separate asynchronous modules that operate concurrently and c...
—We address the problem of code optimization for embedded DSP microprocessors. Such processors (e.g., those in the TMS320 series) have highly irregular datapaths, and conventiona...

—DARWIN is a tool that is able to synthesize CMOS opamps, on the basis of a genetic algorithm. A randomly generated initial set of opamps evolves to a set in which the topologies...
—Embedded computer systems are characterized by the presence of a processor running application-specific dedicated software. A large number of these systems must satisfy real-ti...
Abstract - In this paper we present an approach to incorporate design schedule management services into a flow management system. The basis of our approach is to derive a design s...
